    MACROSOMIA refers to a baby who is very large at the time of birth.

  • associate · D2 - S38

    Macrosomia is associated with a prolonged labor and maternal trauma along with a higher risk of birth injuries for the infant and longer-term adverse consequences.

    Macrosomia is a similar term that describes excessive birth weight, but refers to an absolute measurement, regardless of gestational age.

    Macrosomia is a similar term that describes excessive birth weight, but refers to an absolute measurement, regardless of gestational age.

  • diagnose · D6 - S3

    Typically the threshold for diagnosing macrosomia is a body weight between 4,000 and 4,500 grams (8 lb 13 oz and 9 lb 15 oz), or more, measured at birth, but there are difficulties reaching a universal agreement of this definition.

    Evaluating an infant for macrosomia or LGA can help identify risks associated with their birth, including labor complications of both the parent and the child, potential long-term health complications of the child, and infant mortality.

    Fetal macrosomia and LGA often do not present with noticeable patient symptoms.

  • lead · D6 - S13

    LGA or macrosomic births can lead to complications for both the mother and the infant.

  • weigh · D6 - S27

    Compared to pregnancies without macrosomia, pregnant women giving birth to newborns weighing between 4,000 grams and 4,500 grams are at twice the risk of complications, and those giving birth to infants over 4,500 grams are at three times greater risk.

  • show · D6 - S28

    Multiple factors have been shown to increase the likelihood of infant macrosomia, including preexisting obesity, diabetes, or dyslipidemia of the mother, gestational diabetes, post-term pregnancy, prior history of a macrosomic birth, genetics, and other factors.

    Obesity before pregnancy and maternal weight gain above recommended guidelines during pregnancy are other key risk factors for macrosomia or LGA infants.

  • demonstrate · D6 - S32

    It has been demonstrated that while maternal obesity and gestational diabetes are independent risk factors for LGA and macrosomia, they can act synergistically, with even higher risk of macrosomia when both are present.
